Family of four, two kids aged 8 and 11, we did a full day trip from our hotel in Dubrovnik to Montenegro. Boris picked us up in a nice van with waters and was waiting for us as the designated time. Right off the bat he set a great tone for the day laying out some of our options and giving an idea how long it takes to get to different places. As we were driving he gave a lot of history about the areas we were in and it was clear his passion for helping people explore and understand the area. He also did a good job keeping the kids involved throughout the day. We made several stops around Bay of Kotor and took the boat out to the tiny Lady of the Rock island. We then got lunch in Kotor, was a good seafood restaurant right on the water and then explored the city and make a walk up the old castle walls, for a great view down to the city and the bay. We were there at end of March, so it was still cool out and was not crowded, but he recommended starting very early during the summer seasons because of the crowds and heat. We then started back towards Dubrovnik, Boris offered to bring us several other places on the way back but we and the kids were pretty tired (day 10 of our trip) and we were perfectly happy to head back to the hotel. Boris did an excellent job, was a safe driver and genuinely excited to share his knowledge of the area- what a rare gem! He also did something very thoughtful for our kids which we were very appreciative for. If you're looking for a great guide for the area and a way to customize the trip for whatever you'd like to do- book this now!
